The Teachers’ Dignity Coalition reiterates that health and safety of teachers is the obligation of the Department of Education after a public school in Laguna reportedly asked its teachers to sign a ‘waiver’ when they physically report to school amid COVID-19 crisis.
The said document, which should be signed by the teachers, cites that they “acknowledge the risk of becoming exposed to and/or infected by the Coronavirus/COVID-19 by reporting to work on-site” and that they acknowledge the need to “comply with all set policies and guidelines of the school to prevent and reduce the spread of virus.”
DepEd Calamba City, in the statement, added that teachers should not be asked to “execute a waiver but only to accomplish the health declaration form and abide by the policies and protocols designed to prevent and minimize the spread of COVID-19.”
